Giving the voters what they’ve been demanding, good and hard. And may they finally learn from the experience what any sensible person would have known without all this nonsense.
[FoxNews] A Minneapolis city council subcommittee voted to approve the Minneapolis Police Department (MPD)'s request to hire social workers in precinct offices with the intention of "increasing public satisfaction" and reducing 911 calls.
The city's Policy and Government Oversight Committee approved the request on Monday. The two-year, $730,000 contract would embed at least five social workers in each of MPD's five precincts. The entire city council will vote on the request on Thursday.
The Hennepin County Human Services and Public Health Department would source he full-time employees. The social workers would collaborate with the police in an effort to "expand the level of service provided to individuals needing crisis intervention," according to Minneapolis's government website.
The proposal would deploy social workers to 911 situations to provide mental health support when deemed appropriate. The plan intends to prevent future 911 calls and "reduce [the] rate of arrests/prosecution of persons in mental health crisis."
"This is particularly valuable in considering a trauma informed approach to those victims and family members who have been impacted by violence," a memo on Minneapolis's website read.
The contractors will also connect residents using city resources and services to "formulate care plans for clients" and "assess [individuals'] longer-term needs."
The proposal claims that social worker responses will be "customized to the person’s culture." A key goal of the program is to "increase public satisfaction with the response to mental health services and emergencies," in addition to helping residents.
Several Hennepin County communities had embedded social workers in police departments as far back as 2019. If the measure passes, social workers will work alongside Minneapolis police officers in 2023.
The approval comes over two years after the death of George Floyd, whose murder at the hands of officer Derek Chauvin rocked the city of Minneapolis and the entire country. At the time, many police reform advocates argued that an intervention by a social worker could have prevented Floyd's death.

many police departments provide social work type training to cops already and have been doing so for decades
a few social work departments at universities provide law enforcement orientation - also for decades
in some cases, e.g., domestic disputes the police who respond will have a social worker on the line when they make the visit to the site of the dispute
unfortunately, there is not much the social worker can do if one of the disputants is on a high drug dosage but if the dispute is just yelling, it sometimes helps

Anyone remember Police Academy: Citizens on Patrol?
[FoxNews] The White House is pressuring El Paso, Texas, officials not to declare a state of emergency in the face of mass illegal immigration.
Democratic Mayor Oscar Leeser allegedly told a member of the El Paso City Council in a private conversation that the White House has urged him not to declare a state of emergency.
"He told me the White House asked him not to," Councilmember Claudia Rodriguez told the New York Post.
A declaration has been expected from Leeser in recent weeks as the city's immigration struggles have become more prominent on the national level.
At least three of the eight El Paso City Council members have already asked Leeser to make an emergency declaration.
This week, the Biden administration, which has faced enormous political pressure over the nearly two-year crisis, announced a combined border operation with Mexico. That operation involves increased checkpoints and more resources to handle the migrant surge.
El Paso has launched a new migrant data dashboard that gives a glimpse into the extraordinary numbers the border city is seeing as part of the ongoing migrant crisis racking the southwest border.
The Migrant Situational Awareness Dashboard, available on the city’s website, offers a breakdown of the massive numbers being encountered and released into the community.
According to the data, the numbers went from less than 1,700 releases per week into the community during the summer to over 6,800 last week. The number of migrants in CBP custody has also jumped from fewer than 3,000 a few weeks ago to over 4,500.
The data show that there are over 1,000 being released into the community each day on average, while the city is providing over 900 meals a day to hungry migrants.
[Yahoo] At a minute before 5 a.m. on April 27, ABC News’ James Gordon Meek fired off a tweet with a single word: "FACTS."
The network’s national-security investigative producer was responding to former CIA agent Marc Polymeropoulos’ take that the Ukrainian military — with assistance from the U.S. — was thriving against Russian forces. Polymeropoulos’ tweet — filled with acronyms indecipherable to the layperson, like "TTPs," "UW," and "EW" — was itself a reply to a missive from Washington Post Pentagon reporter Dan Lamothe, who noted the wealth of information the U.S. military had gathered about Russian ops by observing their combat strategy in real time. The interchange illustrated the interplay between the national-security community and those who cover it. And no one straddled both worlds quite like Meek, an Emmy-winning deep-dive journalist who also was a former senior counterterrorism adviser and investigator for the House Homeland Security Committee. To his detractors within ABC, Meek was something of a "military fanboy." But his track record of exclusives was undeniable, breaking the news of foiled terrorist plots in New York City and the Army’s coverup of the fratricidal death of Pfc. Dave Sharrett II in Iraq, a bombshell that earned Meek a face-to-face meeting with President Obama. With nine years at ABC under his belt, a buzzy Hulu documentary poised for Emmy attention, and an upcoming book on the military’s chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan, the 52-year-old bear of a man seemed to be at the height of his powers and the pinnacle of his profession.
Outside his Arlington, Virginia, apartment, a surreal scene was unfolding, and his storied career was about to come crashing down. Meek’s tweet marked the last time he’s posted on the social media platform.
The first thing Meek’s neighbor John Antonelli noticed that morning was the black utility vehicle with blacked out windows blocking traffic in both directions on Columbia Pike. It was just before dawn on that brisk April day, and self-described police-vehicle historian Antonelli was about to grab a coffee at a Starbucks before embarking on his daily three-mile walk. He inched closer to get a better vantage, when he saw an olive-green Lenco BearCat G2, an armored tactical vehicle often employed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, among other law-enforcement agencies. A few Arlington County cruisers surrounded the jaw-dropping scene, but all of the other vehicles were unmarked, including the BearCat. Antonelli counted at least 10 heavily armed personnel in the group. None bore anything identifying which agency was conducting the raid. After just 10 minutes, the operation inside the Siena Park apartment complex — a six-story, upscale building for D.C. professionals, with rents fetching about $2,000 to $3,000 a month — was over.
"They didn’t stick around. They took off pretty quickly and headed west on Columbia Pike towards Fairfax County," Antonelli recalls. "Most people seeing that green vehicle would think it’s some kind of tank. But I knew it was the Lenco BearCat. That vehicle is designed to be jumped out of so they can do a raid in that kind of time. It can return fire if they’re being fired upon."
Multiple sources familiar with the matter say Meek was the target of an FBI raid at the Siena Park apartments, where he had been living on the top floor for more than a decade. An FBI representative told Rolling Stone its agents were present on the morning of April 27 "at the 2300 block of Columbia Pike, Arlington, Virginia, conducting court-authorized law-enforcement activity. The FBI cannot comment further due to an ongoing investigation."
Meek has been charged with no crime. But independent observers believe the raid is among the first — and quite possibly, the first — to be carried out on a journalist by the Biden administration.
Spike the Hairy6811 gives us the Rolling Stone report on the subject, which adds a great deal, including:
In the raid’s aftermath, Meek, who frequently collaborated with ABC World News Tonight anchor David Muir, has made himself scarce. None of his Siena Park neighbors with whom Rolling Stone spoke have seen him since, with his apartment appearing to be vacant. Siena Park management declined to confirm that their longtime tenant was gone, citing "privacy policies." Similarly, several ABC News colleagues — who are accustomed to unraveling mysteries and cracking investigative stories — tell Rolling Stone that they have no idea what happened to Meek.
"He fell off the face of the Earth," says one. "And people asked, but no one knew the answer."
An ABC representative tells Rolling Stone, "He resigned very abruptly and hasn’t worked for us for months."
Sources familiar with the matter say federal agents allegedly found classified information on Meek's laptop during their raid. One investigative journalist who worked with Meek says it would be highly unusual for a reporter or producer to keep any classified information on a computer. So? Hillary Clinton did too and there wasn't an FBI raid on her home. Anyone remember Anthony "Carlos Danger" Weiner and Huma Abedin?
#2
A Tyrant's attack on Constitutional Rights, Freedom of Religion attacked when a dozen ministers were arrested for protesting abortion. Now Freedom of the Press with the disappearing of journalist Meeks. Constitutional Right to Bear Arms will take a hit when the Goons get the courage to raid armed citizens.

A red on red incident? Why would the deep state be attacking their own side? I'm so confused.
My first thought was he was a kiddie fiddler. (Boy, isn’t that sad when the first thing I thought when I saw “journalist raided by FBI” is “he must be a pedophile”.) But I guess not? He had some classified documents so they busted him? So did Hillary Clinton and they didn’t prosecute her.
When a propagandist for the empire does something inconvenient to the government so they send a massive SWAT team to his home to kidnap him, is all I can figure.

That's what they thought Trump had. They would never arrest Hillary, they just didn't want the information getting out.

Why now if this happened in April? Is this setting the stage for something about to break and the prepared context needs to be established?
As an aside, my Uncle owned the old ESSO station just blocks down Columbia Pike at the entrance Henderson Hall, and my family owned a townhouse just off Columbia Pike and Glebe Road, and I lived at River House for years just across 395. Old home week on goggle maps!
The worrisome trend was aired Tuesday by The Heritage Foundation, a think tank that analyzes the strength of the armed forces and potential threats to the US
In its Foundation's Index of US Military Strength, Heritage rated the military 'weak' and 'at risk' of not being able to protect America's vital national interests
The weak rating, down from 'marginal' recorded by the Washington-based agency last year, is the first in the index's nine-year history
It further found that rapidly advancing China remained the most 'comprehensive security challenge' to an ill-prepared US force
Aside from the overall 'weak' rating garnered by the military, Heritage provided each of the military branches with their own individual rankings
The Army scored 'marginal,' while the Air Force was ranked 'very weak' and the Navy 'weak.' The Marine Corps fared the best, receiving a 'strong' rating

Unbelievable. No wonder these assholes are trying to distract us with their foolish proxy war in yet another irrelevant shithole.
The 2023 Index concludes that the current US military force is at significant risk of not being able to meet the demands of a single major regional conflictwhile also attending to various presence and engagement activities,' the report read.
'It most likely would not be able to do more and is certainly ill-equipped to handle two nearly simultaneous major regional conflicts.'

Something is keeping the cost of gas ($3.39) down in Texas, but not the cost of diesel ($6.50).
The price of gas is obvious to all; the cost of diesel is factored into later costs, which are blamed on Russians, greedy suppliers, supply chain, COVID, Trump, etc.

[JustTheNews] With probing questions and relentless redirects, prosecutor exposes FBI for omissions, deletions, peculiar lack of curiosity and a $1 million bounty to pursue Trump.
Igor Danchenko is the named defendant at this week's trial, charged with lying as an informant in the now discredited Russia collusion investigation. But with probing questions and searing redirects, Special Counsel John Durham has turned the Russian researcher's trial in the U.S. District courtroom in Alexandria, Va., into an expose of stunning FBI failures and omissions in its now-infamous pursuit of Donald Trump for crimes that turned out to be nonexistent.
While the Hillary Clinton-spawned Russian collusion narrative has been the subject of a half dozen exhaustive investigations in the House, Senate and Justice Department, Durham has managed to use his third and widely assumed last trial to drop bombshell after bombshell that other inquiries failed to uncover. Even the most versed in the case have been stunned.
The effort began during pretrial motions.
Danchenko, the primary source for the now-debunked Steele dossier, was someone who had both lied to FBI agents and had troubling ties to Russian intelligence. But Durham revealed he was inexplicably hired by the bureau, despite that record, to be a paid confidential human source for three years.
Durham followed that with a stunner on day 1 of the trial, getting FBI senior analyst Brian Auten to reveal that the FBI had been unable to confirm a single fact in the Steele dossier by mid-October 2016 but nonetheless grabbed some of its most sensational claims about Trump and stuck them into a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant marked "verified" that authorized spying on the Trump campaign and former adviser Carter Page.
"On October 21, 2016, did you have any information to corroborate that information?" Durham asked, referring to the Carter Page FISA application submitted on that date.
"No," Auten replied.
The bureau was so desperate to find corroboration to justify Steele's allegations that it offered up to $1 million to former British MI6 agent Christopher Steele, a paid researcher for Hillary Clinton's campaign, if he could corroborate his dossier. Steele did not, Auten told the jury.
That revelation even shocked former House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, who conducted the first exhaustive probe that debunked the dossier and exposed FBI wrongdoing. Nunes told Just the News on Thursday he was never told about the $1 million payment despite subpoenaing the FBI.
"I hate to say this, but like a new shoe drops every day," Nunes told the John Solomon Reports podcast in referring to Durham's work. "And it's like every day we find out something new. And I mean, look, I don't know how you describe this $1 million payment or potential payment to Steele as anything other than what it is. It was a bounty program to get Donald Trump."
Kevin Brock, retired FBI chief of intelligence, told Just the News that the $1 million dangle was completely out of the norm for the bureau.
"The Crossfire Hurricane investigative team, managed by James Comey's headquarters executives, offered a truly outrageous sum of money to Christopher Steele as an 'incentive' to corroborate his own information," Brock said. "Paying money to incentivize a source risks a corrupt outcome. Paying a lot of money risks a lot of corruption. Incentive payments are not normal FBI policy.
"The FBI has specific required procedures for corroborating or vetting a source, especially when that source's information is going to be used in any kind of affidavit. Having a source corroborate his own information is not one of those procedures. That's the job of the investigator."
But Brock said Auten's admission that the bureau submitted evidence to the FISA court that wasn't at all corroborated was even more damning under the bureau's own rules.
"If uncorroborated information is going to be used like this, FBI policy explicitly requires the swearing agent to clearly state that it is not known if the information is accurate or not," he said. "This wasn't done, and it can't be considered a mere oversight. Too many eyes all the way up the chain were laid on this affidavit. We're left with the disappointing conclusion that it was omitted on purpose."
Such revelations have even changed the minds of experts like former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy who, while critical, have tried to give the FBI the benefit of the doubt that its failures in the probe were mistakes but not corrupt behavior. Durham has now delivered "utter proof the FBI framed Trump and shielded Hunter Biden," McCarthy declared this week.
"The trial is highlighting the FBI's shocking malfeasance in the Trump-Russia 'collusion' probe," he wrote in a New York Post column this week.
The revelations of FBI failures kept coming. On day 3 of the trial, Durham used a redirect Q&A to press FBI Special Agent Kevin Helson regarding bringing on Danchenko as a confidential human source.
Durham noted that when Helson was writing a report to bring Danchenko on as a source, he had reported that there was no derogatory information about Danchenko, which wasn't accurate, since there had been a previous espionage case against him that was closed.
When Durham asked if Helson ever corrected that report, the FBI agent answered, "No."
On Wednesday, Durham got Auten to reveal he has been recommended for suspension for his role in the FBI's failure to tell the FISA court the whole truth during the probe code-named Crossfire Hurricane. Durham grilled Auten for failing to do the sort of digging an FBI analyst is assumed to do in a high-profile counterintelligence case.
"While working on Crossfire Hurricane, you were questioned as a witness in the Mueller investigation — you were in the middle of it," he said. "Did you guys even bother to pull phone records? Travel records? You did none of these things."
"Any particular reason why experienced FBI personnel could not request phone records?" Durham asked. "Ever run that number down to see phone records?"
Auten said he couldn't recall.
Durham took a mocking tone at one point on why the FBI did not challenge more aggressively the claims from Danchenko that Belarusian-born businessman Sergei Millian, who was president of the Russian-American Chamber of Commerce, was a source of dirt against Trump, something that proved untrue.
"Millian was a vocal Trump supporter," Durham noted. "Would you find it peculiar that someone who was an avid Trump supporter would provide negative information about the Trump campaign? That is very peculiar, right? Almost unbelievable, wouldn't you say?"
Auten quietly agreed.
Durham signaled his intention to treat the FBI team with suspicion in one of his last pretrial motions, declaring that in "any investigation of potential collusion between the Russian Government and a political campaign, it is appropriate and necessary for the FBI to consider whether information it receives via foreign nationals may be a product of Russian intelligence efforts or disinformation."
In the end, the FBI did not seriously consider that possibility, even after the CIA warned of such possibilities and revealed Hillary Clinton's team was behind the planting of the narrative during the height of the 2016 election.
Brock said Durham has used the trial to tell a story of the FBI’s egregious failures.
“The FBI has been traditionally successful because of a simple formula: uncover facts that lead to evidence that determines an outcome,” the former FBI executive said. “Crossfire Hurricane was a debacle because it started with a desired outcome and tried to create facts to fit that outcome. Durham is methodically revealing just how desperate the politically biased Crossfire Hurricane team was.”
Nunes said the evidence Durham has now put into the public realm raises serious questions about why FBI personnel have not been prosecuted except, for one single lawyer who altered evidence submitted to the court.
“It's just so confusing to me as to why these FBI and DOJ characters and some of the Clinton cabal have not been brought up on a conspiracy charge because clearly they were conspiring to defraud the United States government to lie and mislead Congress,” he said.

See here for interesting details from trial testimony.
[Breitbart] Igor Danchenko, the primary source for Christopher Steele’s debunked dossier, was acquitted on Tuesday of lying to the FBI, dealing a blow to Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation into the origins of Russiagate.
Danchenko faced four counts of lying to the FBI about his interactions with Sergei Millian, former head of the Russian American Chamber of Commerce. Politico reported:
Danchenko told the FBI that he received a call in July 2016 from an unidentified man who shared derogatory information about Trump. The Russian researcher said he believed the man was Millian and that the pair agreed to meet up in New York, but the man never showed.
Durham’s team argued Danchenko never contacted Millian at all and used the story for cover after he told Steele Million was the source of his information that ultimately made its way into Steele’s Democrat-funded dossier.
"There was no call with Millian and there was no call with any individual," prosecutor Michael Keilty said during closing statements. "It’s a not-to-be believed story."
However, Danchenko’s attorneys argued that "he was trying to help the FBI, and now they are prosecuting him for it."
Yes, but he was knowingly help them lie in order to undo Donald Trump’s win in the 2016 election.
Danchenko initially faced five counts of lying to the FBI, but U.S. District Judge Anthony Trenga dismissed one count on Friday at the end of the prosecution’s case-in-chief.
The four-day trial ended Tuesday after the jury deliberated for nine hours and found Danchenko not guilty on all four charges.
"While we are disappointed in the outcome, we respect the jury’s decision and thank them for their service," Durham said in a statement. "I also want to recognize and thank the investigators and the prosecution team for their dedicated efforts in seeking truth and justice in this case."
Danchenko’s case is the third criminal case Durham has brought as part of his investigation. Durham successfully received a guilty plea from FBI attorney Kevin Clinesmith for falsifying an email related to a FISA application. However, Clinesmith served no jail time and was sentenced to probation.
Danchenko is a known nut job and a hardcore alcoholic.
His girlfriend Olga Galkina is also a known nut job and a hardcore alcoholic. They’ve both been fired and/or sued by former employers for their lies and slander.

Getting agents of Deep State convicted in Washington for obvious crimes is about as likely as a Klansman getting convicted in Deep South circa 1890-1970 for killing a black man. Strange that in both cases you would be dealing with Democratic Party dominated populations.
The mysterious “Primary Subsource” that Christopher Steele has long hidden behind to defend his discredited Trump-Russia dossier is a former Brookings Institution analyst -- Igor “Iggy” Danchenko, a Russian national whose past includes criminal convictions and other personal baggage ignored by the FBI in vetting him and the information he fed to Steele, according to congressional sources and records obtained by RealClearInvestigations. Agents continued to use the dossier as grounds to investigate President Trump and put his advisers under counter-espionage surveillance.
The 42-year-old Danchenko, who was hired by Steele in 2016 to deploy a network of sources to dig up dirt on Trump and Russia for the Hillary Clinton campaign, was arrested, jailed and convicted years earlier on multiple public drunkenness and disorderly conduct charges in the Washington area and ordered to undergo substance-abuse and mental-health counseling, according to criminal records. …
A newly declassified FBI summary of the FBI-Danchenko meeting reveals agents learned that key allegations in the dossier, which claimed Trump engaged in a “well-developed conspiracy of cooperation” with the Kremlin against Clinton, were largely inspired by gossip and bar talk among Danchenko and his drinking buddies, most of whom were childhood friends from Russia.

The problem with this case was the issue of 'materiality'.
To be found guilty your lie has to have a material consequence.
Since the FBI was going to spy on the Trump campaign anyway it didn't matter much that Danchenko lied because the FBI would have found another POS person to come up with something.
This is the same problem as the earlier trial.
