Mrs Cedar lost her Yorkie yesterday - Pooh was a five year cancer survivor. She passed away unexpectedly after falling asleep in my wife’s arms just before 6 PM. If you wrote a script of tbe perfect life for a little 4 pound dog I could not think of a thing that was left out.

CMPD's statement regarding the RBP shooting: On Sunday, June 14, around midnight, multiple officers were working in the area of Romare Bearden Park and were actively enforcing the City of Charlotte’s Curfew Ordinance when they heard multiple gunshots and responded to the location. Officers quickly located and began initial treatment for two subjects found to have sustained gunshot wounds. Officers then also quickly located and apprehended suspects related to the incident. MEDIC responded and transported the victims to local hospitals. (CODE SPEAK - "related" which means not necessarily the shooters).
Overnight Charlotte’s Romare Bearden Park was once again the scene of a shooting. According to Charlotte-Mecklenburg police two people were shot just after midnight Uptown and later two suspects were arrested.

Not convinced that the arrests are the suspected shooters.

X is a strange place. Those are arm rests that fold down and the holes are not a/c or speakers rather the bottom of built in cup holders for use when the arm rests are lowered.
Hola @grok, esta foto esta saliendo en todos lados, la chica rubia de la izquierda me suena, la chica morena de la derecha no se quien es. Pero, ¿me podrías decir que son esos orificios que están en la parte superior del asiento?

This photo is AI-generated, not a real image from the match. The highlighted circular features are cup holders on the underside of foldable armrests (common in stadium seating). nbcnews.com/sports/soccer/…

You could not make this up: As Trump’s name was being removed from the Kennedy Center, Jim Acosta exclaims: “This is very much like watching the Berlin Wall coming down." "It is a sign that humankind can stand up against tyranny."

Maine Corrections Officer Billy Bassikissa Bounguiena, detained by ICE. “Billy” worked at the Cumberland County (Portland) Jail supervising 100s of criminals. Maine hires illegals who have entered the US unlawfully to enforce their laws? This will not end well.

The MCSO is currently holding 2071 fulltime inmates plus another nearly 100 in various stages of processing. It's crowded and reports are that the A/C is not working in at least one section of the jail. More than 300 of these inmates are subject to current ICE Detainers and most of those have administrative warrants for deportation. One of those is HECTOR ZELEYA ANTONIO ZELAYA age 19, he's charged with 2 counts of ROBBERY WITH DANGEROUS WEAPON, crimes committed in 2024 Mr. Zelaya's home address is listed as 301 BILLINGSLEY RD. CHARLOTTE, NC 28211 which is the Mecklenburg County Health Department. Zelaya has been held at taxpayer expense since October of 2024. Arrested as a juvenile and now transferred to adult jail. A jury trial is set for December of 2026. This is just nuts. Why not just dismiss the charges and deliver his happy ass to ICE/CBP and let them deal with this POS. Even if he's found guilty a Meck County judge will give him no more than a slap on the wrist and credit for time served. There are likely 200 other cases just like this at the Mecklenburg County Detention Center with garbage just like this sucking in air taking up space in an already crowded jail.

This is the communist ideology of the main stream Democratic Party. Not some fringe group of crazies this is their entire message. Elon Musk and Orange Man bad!
Elon Musk just became the world's first trillionaire. This needs to be a wake up call.

Replying to @CMPD
This might be the best work yall have done in the 4 years I’ve been here. Well done CMPD. That video was disturbing. And what’s even more disturbing is not a single person on that train thought to call law enforcement for their fellow citizens.

Hell of a start to the weekend!

Ro Khanna is an idiot
Brad, a 5% tax on Elon's trillion net worth would literally pay for free college and trade school for every American. And with the market's growth, he still would be worth over a trillion dollars! You don't think that's worth it?
Community note
5% of $1.2T is $60b. 8m students in BA/BS programs on average pay over $20k/yr, or ~$160b/yr for BA/BS degrees only. That tax could not cover even half of only US bachelor degree costs for just 1 year, excluding grad, ass., or trade degrees totaling another ~10m students. nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/i… bestcolleges.com/research/colle…

Fake tags or real temporary tags you decide. But the risk to Charlotte drivers is huge. CMPD made six arrests last night for fake tags. On a Thursday night. This is nuts!

After officers were made aware of a video circulating online showing a heated exchange on the light rail, they immediately began an investigation. No 9‑1‑1 calls were made during the incident. They reviewed available video footage on social media as well as security footage obtained from @CATSRideTransit and were able to positively identify the suspect and obtain warrants for his arrest. On June 11, at approximately 10 p.m., a CMPD officer working off-duty security on the CATS Blue Line located the suspect on a Blue Line platform. Derek Lamont Hutchinson, 36, was apprehended with assistance from Central Division officers. A knife was seized during the arrest. Hutchinson was transferred to the custody of the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office and is charged with the following: · Going Armed to the Terror of the People · Carrying a Concealed Weapon · Disorderly Conduct · Felony Possession of a Schedule I Controlled Substance · Possession of Marijuana · City/Town Violation Hutchinson is currently being held under a $40,000 secured bond.
