this is only tangentially related but this is gonna be a good day for boomer rage watching on twitter because Smollett got acquitted of all obviously made up charges from the CPD put forward to punish him for daring to oppose people who believe minorities should be beaten and cowed with terror

Where did this come from ? Admittedly, I haven’t been following the case, but $10k bond forfeiture and immediate record sealing is either a payoff or police caught in a conspiracy, but if that were the case I think the dude would saying he’s keeping the $10k and let the case go to the box


Either way, the claims of what happened are serious and have serious far reaching repercussions. I think more explanation is deserved

e; can someone link me to the gently caress
the police thread? I’m sure there is one in D&D or GBS . I’d like to talk about the Kopy’s bar beatings, but I know there’s a more appropriate thread than this

It's the Chicago PD lol, they tried a frame job because the perps were probably off duty cops and it was so obvious and poorly done that even the FBI was calling them out. Basically they immediately said the perps were good and then started releasing smolletts personal info like transactions with magical stories about how it was used to save his spot on the show, then to get a raise when they found out he wasn't getting cut after all.

They invented all kinds of scenarios and had anonymous reporters leak them to give them credibility, like people buying cold weather gear in Chicago being proof they were being paid to fake an attack

Basically none of it made sense unless your brain fundamentally loves cops uncritically and you will never ever believe anybody who criticizes them, which is why all chuds and libs fell over themselves to smear him and suck CPD dick

I don't know if he's actually a pedophile but he spent just over 5 years running that cesspool so it's a possibility.

IIRC his one and only girlfriend only hosed him because she had a fetish for people with severe physical disabilities

naw we'll never know, it's all sealed up tight now because the details would make the cops look bad. Not really any other read considering the standard tactic by the police in this case was to release tons of baseless speculation, so if anything was in there that would've incriminated Smollett we would've heard about it

For me the litmus test was when he said it's not fair to expect Obama not to take payoffs from the financial industry when every white president did the same. That's galaxy brain liberalism right there.

I know this wouldn't be anything close to legal or passable as a law in the US but there should be a law that if a police officer is accused of assault/murder/etc while on duty and their body camera is off or "malfunctioning" they are guilty of the offense.

That or you can't be a police officer if you've been accused of domestic assault. We hold teachers to pretty much that standard.

Never. I’ve never heard of a judge sealing a record immediately like that. (what record is there to seal?)

I’ve also never heard of surrendering a bond if all charges are dropped

Flooding woes add to trade war stress in 'Trump country' farm belt
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-weather-trade/flooding-woes-add-to-trade-war-stress-in-trump-country-farm-belt-idUSKCN1R70C3

quote:

Nebraska grain farmer Ryan Ueberrhein was barely breaking even after the U.S.-China trade war pushed prices for his soybean crop to a decade low.
Then the nearby Elkhorn River burst its banks as flooding swept across the U.S. farm belt.

Uberrhein’s farm was left covered in debris after the roiling water receded. He has mounting debts.
And he is worried that President Donald Trump may not be able to strike a trade deal with China that would end tariffs on U.S. soybean exports -
and allow him to sell whatever grain is left intact at a better price.

Frustration is building across farm country at what feels like a never-ending season of bad news.

The trade war “keeps damaging us,” said Ueberrhein, 34, of Valley, Nebraska, who voted for Trump.
“What the president is doing, we stand by him, but ... we can’t keep getting hit just because a deal can’t be made quickly.”

U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin are set to arrive in China this week for another round of trade talks with their Chinese counterparts.
The two sides have yet to agree on many core issues.

Farmers who spoke to Reuters remained supportive of Trump.

Soybean exports to China hit a four-year low in February because of the trade war. China is the biggest buyer of U.S.
soybeans, which are the largest single U.S. agricultural export.
A near halt in exports has hit a rural economy already struggling after years of oversupply cut farm incomes by 50 percent in the past five years.

Debt in the agrarian economy has hit levels last seen during the U.S. farm collapse of the 1980s.

The latest piece of bad news came on March 11, when the Trump administration released its 2020 budget and proposed a 15 percent cut for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, calling its subsidies to farmers “overly generous.”
