~~It might be better if you can link to the timestamp around where this takes place.~~

~~Especially considering that you just linked to a 7+ hour video.~~ Edit: just realized that you do have the start time in there. Looks like GrayJay only handles &t=____s instead of &start=____s

The DOJ is now habitually lying to the public.

No problem! Thanks for the edit.

The only video I could find of events leading up to the shooting was this one (if you want to add on to the comment): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4qBLgk9hWw

It looks like that video is from a different incident.

According to the Chicago Tribune, Martinez was driving a silver Nissan Rogue (not a truck and not a Chevy).

In the video you linked, it looks like a Chevy is ramming the ICE truck.

Note: If you watch the video to the end you can see that the police lights are coming from the truck itself.

Hi everyone,
I work with the Institute for Justice, a nonprofit law firm, and we’re representing Leo Garcia Venegas (shown in the video below).
Leo, a U.S. citizen, was detained by federal agents twice while working on a construction site in Alabama. Both times, he showed valid ID — and both times, agents ignored it. These warrantless raids on private property violate the Fourth Amendment, and Leo is now suing.
We’re looking for other U.S. citizens (or people who know them) who’ve been detained or questioned by ICE while working.
If this has happened to you or someone you know, please share your story through the linked form. Your experiences can make a real difference.

Latter-day Saints launch GiveSendGo for Michigan LDS church shooter’s widow, family

Thanks! I definitely feel the same. I found it particularly wholesome to read through the comments of those that were donating here: https://www.givesendgo.com/helptheSanfordfamily

Yes, but this isn't a fundraiser that was started by the church (or with church funding) but rather it was started and donated to by the members themselves.

“THIS IS WAR”: Some right-wing figures call for retribution following Kirk killing

NotAnotherLemmyUser @lemmy.world 9mo ago

Yeah, the problem I'm seeing now is that everyone on the right is seeing the left's reaction. And now they don't care if the shooter actually was someone from the left or not.

The response they see is all they need to justify any reaction. Of course they're conveniently forgetting their own response (and Charlie Kirk's response) to Pelosi's attacker.

North Carolina parents arrested for letting their kid walk to the store. On his way home, he was killed by an SUV. The parents were charged with manslaughter.

The U.S. is a big country, whether large vehicles are the most popular depends on what state you live in.

That being said, anyone from Europe will notice that there are way more of these trucks (designed in a lethal manner as you described) than they have ever seen before, no matter what part of the U.S. they visit.

Blamed for Steam games ban, Mastercard encourages censorship during Riot Games VCT livestreams

Ana Valens recently resigned from Vice following an article about the censorship of games. On social media, she shared communication between Mastercard and Riot Games.

Looks like Vice can't be trusted as a reliable source of information if they're willing to fire journalists after a little outside pressure is put on them.

Mastercard Claims NSFW Game Bans Aren’t From Them, Valve Explains How Mastercard Launders Its Control

The article addresses the topic of how quickly the banning of this kind of material can get out of hand:

These are, it seems, the same people going on book-banning crusades that ensare such smut as Calvin & Hobbes comics.
*Magic Tree House author Mary Pope Osborne, children’s poet Shel Silverstein and Calvin and Hobbes cartoonist Bill Watterson have joined Judy Blume, Sarah J. Maas, Eric Carle and Kurt Vonnegut on a mind-boggling list of hundreds of books purged from some Tennessee school libraries.*
The removals are the result of a growing political movement to control information through book banning. In 2024, the state legislature amended the “Age-Appropriate Materials Act of 2022” to specify that any materials that “in whole or in part” contain any “nudity, or descriptions or depictions of sexual excitement, sexual conduct, excess violence, or sadomasochistic abuse” are inappropriate for all students and do not belong in a school library. This change means books are not evaluated as a whole, and excerpts can be considered without context, if they have any content that is deemed to cross these lines. This leaves no room for educators and librarians to curate collections that reflect the real world and serve the educational needs of today’s students.

Police officer arrested by ICE was eligible to work, Maine Police Department says

He was attempting to purchase a gun for work, but wasn't able to. He was flagged in the system which is why ICE went after him.

The police department used DHS's own "e-verify" website to make sure that Evans was able to work. So, it sounds like some of their own internal systems are unreliable.

Sen. Josh Hawley wants to exclude ‘Biden voters’ from $600 Trump tariff rebate checks

After reading through the article, this is a misleading title. It sounds like he's trying to say that Biden voters are all wealthy people that wouldn't need this:

Well, you wouldn’t give it to everybody, you’d give it to the working people,” the Missouri Republican told far-right podcaster and former Trump adviser Steve Bannon on Tuesday. “You’d give it to our people.”
“I mean, you know, the rich people don’t need it … what I mean by that is all those Democrat donors of Wall Street, all these hedge fund guys, who all hate the tariffs, by the way."

‘Longtime’ Hertz customer says he’s ‘done’ after AI scanner flagged water reflection as actual damage: ‘Unchallengable, automated accusation’

https://www.npr.org/2022/12/06/1140998674/hertz-false-accusation-stealing-cars-settlement

Hertz keeps failing again and again with their automated systems. Only within the past few years did they finally settle with 364 customers that were falsely accused/arrested for stealing their cars.

They have an automated system for generating police reports on stolen cars, but there were many instances of customers falsely reported when they had actually called in to extend the rental, or if they had rented a car which had previously been flagged as stolen (but not corrected in their system).

Trump Cognitively Declines In Front Of The World During Meet With NATO Leader

I think it would be great if we set the age limit to be tied to a percentage of the average expected lifespan of the country's citizens in some way. Setting a hard age limit wouldn't be adaptive enough.

It would incentivize them to pass legislation and regulations which help increase everyone's life expectancy. It would also somewhat help in the case of a future where some medical advances allow only those with enough money to have insanely increased lifespans.

I think there is no proper social media platform to express oneself.

NotAnotherLemmyUser @lemmy.world 11mo ago

Still issues here, but modlogs are mostly public, and anyone can verify what you actually said by looking at the logs. Definitely makes it easier over at !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com to see what's going on.
