A thread on "justice" in Hennepin County,

Adam Garcia, the suspect in the Edina bus stop murder case was in court this morning on ten (10) separate unrelated cases.

He has yet to be charged in the murder case.
He made his date this morning by the sheer luck of being in custody on the Edina arrest.

By my count, Garcia has failed to appear on 13 separate court dates over the past five years.
His cases were heard this morning in front of Judge Thomas J. Conley.

Garcia was convicted in 4 of the cases, with the other 5 cases dismissed outright, with additional counts within the first four also being dismissed.
In Garcia's four convictions (3 misdemeanors and a gross misdemeanor) the sentences by Conley were either stayed or run concurrently.

The only jail time he received was 22 days in the workhouse.

$1,000 in fines were waived. He only owes $128.
The tenth case was held over until January.
Adam Garcia has, by my count, had 46 separate, unrelated criminal cases filed against him in the past five years.

He has been convicted many times, including two felony convictions. He has been convicted of stabbing a police officer while resisting arrest (in 2019).

22 days.

A thread on the pernicious "hate incident registry" about to become law in Minnesota.

As we've noted before, the demand for hate crimes in Minnesota vastly exceeds the supply.

And there is an entire industry in the state (bureaucrats and nonprofits) dependent on producing more.
The language is contained in SF 2909, the "public safety bill" on page 50, beginning at line 31.

revisor.mn.gov/bills/text.php…
The language is a 15-line run on sentence that begins,

"solicit, receive, and compile information from community organizations, school
districts and charter schools, and individuals regarding incidents committed in whole or in
substantial part because of the victim's or...

23 of the nation's top 400 billionaires gave to MN Democrats in the past three years. Here is the list:

#mnleg Image
For those wondering about Republicans, only 7 Forbes billionaires gave to the MN GOP over that period, for a total of $70,000.

Bill Austin (Starkey) gave the bulk ($49,000). Austin was the only one to give to both parties.
And no. The names Adelson, Koch, Thiel, and Trump appear nowhere on the list.

A thread on conservative voters, politicians, and elections.

Like most of you, I've been frustrated with recent election results.

These are my observations from spending the past two weeks digging through campaign finance reports from both parties.
In Minnesota, Democrats rely on a handful of mostly out-of-state mega donors to fund their campaigns.

As for grassroot, small-dollar donors, they don't seem to even bother.
Minnesota Republicans do much, much better with small-dollar, grassroots donors. Their median donor is much more reflective of the median Minnesota voter.

That said, Republican end up getting outspent by a ratio of 2:1 to 3:1.

A thread on societal collapse.

Since we jettisoned the concept of merit, in favor of equity, the clock has been ticking.
Our economy is based on a series of complex, interrelated systems for transportation, and delivery ofenergy, food, and consumer goods.
These systems require periodic investment and renewal to maintain effectiveness and an army of trained, dedicated managers and engineers to operate.

I am frequently asked for proof that Ilhan Omar married her brother. The people who make this request are not asking in good faith.

But for those who are still new to the story, I've tried to boil down the story to the fewest links that work in the Twitter format.

Here goes...
This is the marriage certificate for Ilhan's first legal marriage. It was conducted by a Christian minister in 2009 and she married a man named Ahmed Nur Said Elmi.
Reporting by several outlets (including the Star Tribune) identify the man in the picture below (arrow) with Ilhan as the same man on the marriage certificate.
